L & L Auto Service at a glance

Customers frequently cite honest pricing, clear communication, and efficient service as key strengths, noting that staff explain repairs without pushing unnecessary work. The shop handles various needs, including major mechanical issues, tire alignment, and child seat installation. However, a minority of reviewers report dissatisfaction with specific repairs that failed to resolve the original problem and suggest the shop occasionally recommends unneeded services.

So glad I found Luis Jr. and his team at L & L. I came in as a new customer needing major work on an old car. They assessed the car quickly, did the work in a few days, and charged a fair price. A few days later, they even fixed an unrelated, minor issue on the spot. I am completely satisfied and will use them for all my future needs!

Excellent service. The service advisor provided professional explanations of the requested car repairs. Additional issues that they discovered during the inspection were legitimate and clearly demonstrated. The repairs were completed to a high standard. The price was reasonable and good value for the extent of the work completed.

I would not recommend this repair shop. They charged me a total of $650 to repair my check engine and my check engine was never fixed and I returned the car again to them and they pretended to fix it and it wasn’t. I can go on and on about the false promises of being able to fix it instead they’re more concerned about taking my hard earned money.

You have a 2008 BMW X3 with over 140k miles. It came in overheating, misfiring, suspension noise, drive shaft shaking, leaking coolant, and oil. This vehicle has multiple issues and I told you its best we start with fixing the coolant leak so we can drive the car without it overheating. I mentioned I would charge 1 hour labor to see what's going on with the check engine light. When we scanned the vehicle's computer we found over 10 different trouble codes and I recommended to start with the misfire and see what codes pop up afterwards. I'm sorry you feel that $650 would make your car brand new again, but the reality is you need over $3000 just to make it drivable and that's why I told you its best to get rid of it.

We bring our 2018 Rav4 hybrid here and have also felt taken care of. They are honest, straight forward and easily relatable. Thanks for staying late to fix our car on a Saturday Junior and your team of techs! 🙏
